How to hold an order with Kounta

When you need to send an order to be made now, but paid later it is quick and easy.

This could be a bar tab, a table, a customer going to get cash, or a customer who hasn't fully decided on what they want.

It's quick and easy, additionally, you can add a note and link a customer to an order to help you identify it later.

If you are holding orders for Table Service - then you should check out our Tables add-on.

1. When holding an order to be paid later - you will want to make sure you have a memorable order note so that you can pick it out easier later.
